We need to be very careful here what we export. This opens the path to be used as a generic backend and all the promises public interfaces make come with that too. We should really NOT try to be the backing store for all sorts of third-party tools here. We need the flexibility in the future to change and improve things here, which gets really hard when they are used outside of what all that is meant to be used for. > This has been requested before, and seems useful.
